I think that I answered your question in my post to Larry. I would agree that GLW is in a downtrend on the long term chart, but the stock has been relatively flat in a narrow trading range on the daily chart. I wouldn't call the daily trend down. I don't have time to post any backup data at the moment, but Corning's stock is trading at a historically low level relative to revenues/share, earnings/share, and dividends. If one believes like me that the economy is close to a bottom, I think that it is a good idea to buy companies like ORCL and GLW if they drift lower. Like I said, I would trade these stocks around a core position because they are volatile and I don't think that these stocks or the overall market is ready to sustain a rally.
